Finding ME

This quote is hanging in my living room right now as a reminder to myself that I am the creator of my own destiny. God gave us choices and it is up to me to decide what I will do with my life. We have so many self help books, dvd's, podcast and everything else that we forget to look within. When we step away from our phones, reality tv, and social media we will then be able to focus on the real that is within us. We lose ourselves to relationships, careers, education and life in general. It is time to start looking within for all that you need without. I once told a friend that she had to find herself outside of all the titles- find herself without being a daughter, sister, mom, friend, girlfriend- who are YOU and you alone?

 What is life? Who decides? Life is what you make it! We have a saying now that says " oh these shoes are giving me life" or "this food is giving me life." Life for me is trying to live holy, traveling, helping others, making money, having fun. That is just what is right now.... who says my meaning of life won't change in 2 years.... to wife, mothers, education. It can and that is that. The quote sums it up... life is about creating yourself....finding your happy place, being who you want to be.

In search of magic

She told me something was missing. Not a spark or a twinkle Not a light or a star Not a fire or an ember My magic was missing. The very thing that allowed me to create the me I wanted to be, had long gone missing He took it, I said, and I want it back! I want it all back. Slowly she felt it returning- but she had to figure how to use it again. Never again would she let someone steal her magic. Never again would she freely give of her magic. Never again would she take for granted the magic that was given to her as her prized possession. And when she said it- she felt it- the magic she once knew had returned and oh how it had grew. It was undeniable, unimaginable- she realized that the magic was her, she had never left- she had only forgotten due to his curse. She realized what she had forgotten; she had placed her magic safely on a shelf far, far away from what she called her heart. Hidden from all others, even herself- because she was too weak to control it ...

What are REFINED CARBS-?

REFINED CARBOHYDRATES AND PURIFIED SUGARS found this on the internet- at diagnosisdiet.com What are Refined Carbohydrates?

ALL sugars and starches, EXCEPT those that come in the form of a natural whole food like a piece of fruit, a Lima bean, or a sweet potato, are considered refined carbohydrates. If you are looking at a sweet or starchy whole food that you could come across exactly as is in nature, you are looking at an UNrefined carbohydrate. Refined carbohydrates are forms of sugars and starches that don’t exist in nature. They do come from natural whole foods, but they have been altered in some way by processing to “refine” them. Processing methods include industrial extraction, concentration, purification, and enzymatic transformation. It’s easy for most of us to identify sugars, because they taste sweet and usually come in the form of crystals, s...
